TO THE VICTORY I LONG TO WIN

We all have our own troubles
and problems to bare in life
the devil creeps in at weak moments
to bring us misery and strife

Yet our hearts belong to Jesus
so each day we cry out for his help
we do battle on a daily basis
for his love is always felt

Still my will conflicts with your will
and I try to change the pathway for me
depression,ill-health,lack of confidence
are all things the devil sees

Then instead of picking myself up
through fast and earnest prayer
I find what makes me comfortable
robbing my Lord of His true share

I love you Jesus Christ
this in my heart I know you see
but love is not enough I know
for the kingdom you offer me

I know that I am your vessel
designed with purpose and plan
that you will mold into a likeness
of your own holy hand

So Father I stand before you today
saying "Jesus I am ready to try again"
break this will within me
help me to surrender so I may begin

To do thy work once again
with abundant love and care
to use the dreams we created at night
so others may see in you there is no fear

Humbly I tell you
I have robbed Jesus who I love the most
by settling for less then He gives
through His Spirit the Holy Ghost

Now once again today I vow
that my eyes will rest on Him
and I will pray that He will guide me
To The Victory I Long To Win
